Chuck Gohn is the Senior of a small, independent, non-denominational church on the north side of Pittsburgh. For the last two years, Chuck has been attempting to implement a coaching culture as part of the overall discipleship model for the church. Reach Chuck at bellevuechristian.church or chuckpgohn@gmail.com. Challenges of implementation: People don't "get" coaching or reject as trendy. Because of relational aspect, women gravitate to coaching more than men. Joys of implementation: High Impact low investment of time. Very good ministry for a person with not a lot of time but has the desire to contribute in a significant way. Takes away the excuse for people not growing in their faith. Small groups have validity, but a person can hide for years. Coaching places them in a growth position Advice for implementing coaching in the local church. Some are not coachable (need to be creative, resourceful, whole) Take it slow. Don't advertise a coaching workshop. Hand pick a few people and begin coaching them. Celebrate wins. Get a cheerleader. Require your potential coaches to be coached
